Coal Iron - Goa, India

 

The charcoal iron was widely used to press laundered clothes prior to the times of electric power in the villages in Goa. It was heated by smoldering coals which were taken from a fire and placed inside the iron. Fast burning coconut shells was one of the quickest way to get this gadget started. I remember    using this type of iron in my early teens. It had holes as air vents along the sides to allow the coals to continue burning. The lid of the basic box was hinged at the rear and fitted with a wooden handle to hold the iron in the process of ironing out creases from various types of clothing or linen. It remained hot as long as, or a little longer than the dying embers of the coal. It was available as cast iron or brass.
